Covering the Sky: I am Donghuang Taiyi

"Congratulations on your return, fellow Daoist!" The two emperors, Taiyin and Taiyang, stepped forward and said with a smile.

This celestial being, whose fate was full of twists and turns, who overcame numerous hardships and dangers to attain enlightenment, and who dedicated his life to suppressing the scourge of corpses and protecting all living beings, was a celestial being of immeasurable merit. Even the ancient human emperor could not help but feel respect for him.

"Congratulations to both of you!" Although Lingbao Tianzun was a celestial being from the mythological era, he had gained insight into the affairs of later generations after his return and naturally recognized the two human emperors.

He wasn't arrogant at all; he just smiled and nodded.

As fellow enlightened beings of the human race, the two human emperors' unparalleled achievements in the ancient times deserved his special attention.

"I wonder what the Heavenly Venerable plans to do in the future?" Donghuang asked.

"If the Eastern Emperor does not mind, this humble Daoist is willing to join the Heavenly Court, to serve as a lowly soldier and do my part!" Lingbao Tianzun did not hesitate for long and bowed to the Eastern Emperor.

If Donghuang was just an ordinary emperor.

The proud and arrogant Lingbao Tianzun would naturally not be willing to easily submit to others; at most, he would remember the other party's kindness and try to repay it.

But he already knew exactly how monstrous and powerful this Heavenly Lord was.

He once became an immortal in the mortal world, and in the shortest time, he became a high and mighty immortal king. Now he has become a quasi-immortal emperor, and his strength is unfathomable.

Many of the ancient emperors and great rulers who joined the Heavenly Court have now become immortals.

He naturally didn't want to miss such an opportunity.

Meanwhile, the two human emperors, Taiyin and Taiyang, smiled and were not surprised by the Heavenly Venerable's choice.

After all, the current strength and achievements of the Eastern Emperor are there for all to see. Even if he was once an invincible imperial powerhouse, what is he compared to the other party?

For that pitiful bit of self-esteem deep down?

Or are we just like frogs at the bottom of a well, deceiving ourselves?

The celestial realm created by the Eastern Emperor is different from the human realm in the Dharma-ending Age. It allows people to live forever and even become immortals.

Today, the Heavenly Court is even more powerful, and over the long years it has collected countless immortal classics and various scriptures, and these treasures alone are of immeasurable value.

If one can peruse even a few pages of this material for reference and verification, one will surely benefit immensely.

Not to mention, there are also a large number of powerful individuals who can discuss and exchange ideas with each other. There are even quite a few immortal experts. If you join the Heavenly Court, you will have the opportunity to listen to these supreme beings preach.

It is not a fantasy that he will one day attain immortality and become a powerful immortal.

Besides, the Heavenly Court is not a forbidden zone for life. If it were any other powerful emperor, they would probably make the same choice.

"If the Celestial Venerable is willing to join the Heavenly Court, then we would naturally welcome him!"

Donghuang spoke with a smile.

At the same time, he made a large gesture.

Several gleaming swords and a blazing, ancient array diagram flew in.

He handed it to Lingbao Tianzun: "Before I rose to power, I was protected by the array diagram and killing sword left behind by you, Tianzun. They deterred villains and resolved a lot of trouble. Today, I return them to their rightful owner!"

This formation diagram and the killing sword have been perfected and refined by Donghuang many times, and have long since become an unparalleled immortal formation.

However, for him, the Lingbao Killing Array is basically useless now, and there are even more advanced killing arrays protecting it in the Heavenly Court, so it's better to return it to the Lingbao Heavenly Venerable.

Among them, the array diagram and four killing swords hummed softly as they flew up.

Surrounding the Celestial Venerable, they shone brightly, filled with joy and elation.

Although Donghuang refined and sublimated them more than once, he did not deliberately erase the mark of Lingbao Tianzun.

Therefore, although the deity of the array diagram had long been powerful enough to directly kill this former master, he still missed Lingbao Tianzun and acknowledged him.

"Donghuang, this..."

Lingbao Tianzun's gaze was intense.

Looking at the nine swords wreathed in celestial light, and the dazzling, mysterious array diagrams, they were worlds apart from his own four swords and array diagrams of the past.

But that familiar aura and indescribable sense of intimacy made him realize that this was the array diagram and killing sword he had refined throughout his life.

However, after being sublimated by the Eastern Emperor and incorporating five more killing swords, it has transformed into an unparalleled immortal formation.

Even a single killing sword is a true immortal artifact.

My immediate instinct was to decline.

"Don't refuse. Now that you've joined the Heavenly Court, you're one of us!"

Donghuang smiled and said, "Moreover, with your talent, Lingbao Tianzun, whether you choose to stay in the mortal realm and continue on the path of immortality or cultivate directly in the celestial realm, I believe you will achieve great things."

"I believe your ultimate achievements will not betray this unparalleled killing formation!"

He greatly admired Lingbao Tianzun, who had once proven his Dao through array formations, and placed high hopes on him.

The fact that the other party is considered to have extraordinary talent, but suffered an accident during his past self-destruction, resulting in a change in his imperial body and a decline in his consciousness, does not necessarily mean anything.

Even someone as powerful as himself almost encountered problems several times during his journey from mortal to immortal.

Moreover, with his help, the Heavenly Venerable Lingbao, who has returned against all odds, has overcome the difficulties and begun his fifth life.

Although the remaining lifetimes were still perilous, they had access to various ancient texts collected within the Heavenly Court, as well as the experiences and longevity methods summarized by him, the Lord of the Heavenly Court, Ye Fan, the Empress, Wu Shi, and the three siblings Yan Fei.

With Lingbao Tianzun's talent, it is believed that he can completely overcome this obstacle on his own and become a mortal immortal without any problem.

Even if Lingbao Tianzun were to abandon the mortal path to immortality and directly enter the celestial realm for cultivation, he would still possess limitless potential and would undoubtedly become an immortal in the shortest possible time.

Their future achievements are limitless; they won't be bad at all.

The killing formation diagram and nine killing swords that he deduced and refined should be able to help the opponent gain something and improve their skills in formations.

"Thank you for your kindness, Donghuang. I will accept it without hesitation." Seeing this, Lingbao Tianzun no longer refused and was filled with gratitude towards Donghuang.

In the past, he refined the array diagram and used the array to prove his Dao.

He continued to study the art of array formations and added four killing swords, transforming it into the greatest killing array in history.

The killing formation, refined several times by an unparalleled being like Donghuang, was undoubtedly extremely tempting to him.

If one can grasp even a fraction of it, one will surely benefit immensely and make further progress in the art of array formations.

"I wonder if the Celestial Venerable intends to follow the path of immortality in the mortal world or go directly to the Celestial Realm to cultivate?"

The Taiyin Emperor asked.

He and the Sun Emperor have both decided to go to the Heavenly Realm to cultivate.

The path to immortality in the mortal world, though promising, is ultimately too perilous for them.

"Naturally, it's the path to immortality in the mortal world!" Lingbao Tianzun chose the former without hesitation.

If he could live four more lifetimes in reverse, he would be able to become an immortal in the mortal world, attain the immortal status of the mortal world, and be on par with a quasi-immortal king.

Although it was somewhat risky, he was confident that with so much experience left behind by the immortals of the mortal world, he would have no problem navigating this path.

Chapter 844 Successive Breakthroughs, Ye Fan Becomes King

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, more than two hundred thousand years have passed.

For countless years, the Heavenly Court has continuously launched expeditions to the four extreme floating lands, and the great war continues to this day.

However, they could not break through their defenses and instead used the outposts established by the strange race of the Four Extremes Floating Earth in the heavens to hone the skills of the Heavenly Court's troops.

On the other side of the Four Extremes Floating Land, a supreme being at the Dao Ancestor level once crossed over and descended, but was blocked by the incarnation of the Eastern Emperor.

During this period, they went through constant battles and trials.

Not only did the witch successfully break through to the level of an unparalleled giant, but the Primordial Celestial Lord also successfully became a Celestial King giant.

Ye Fan perfected his system, and with his talent and aptitude, he reached the pinnacle of immortality, capable of defeating even Immortal Kings.

The two mortal immortals, Empress and Wushi, broke through one after another, becoming the first to overcome the Immortal King Tribulation.

Although they never reached the pinnacle of immortality, the two were truly astonishing. Their accumulation in the mortal immortal realm was so profound that they leaped to become true immortal king giants, even more astonishing than the Primordial Heavenly Lord back then.

Even if it only barely touches the domain of the giants, it cannot be considered invincible in the domain of the giants.

But the potential of both is evident.

It is worth mentioning that.

Lin Jia, Yao Xi, Zi Xia, An Miaoyi, Yan Ruyu, Jiang Tingting, Yun Yao (the Holy Maiden of Yaochi), and other women—Donghuang's confidantes—accelerated their transformation process with his help.

They all successfully lived out their ninth incarnation and became immortals in the mortal world.

Although he used some tricks, he was still a mortal immortal with extraordinary Dao attainments.

He could barely reach the combat power of a quasi-immortal king, but he was stronger than those peerless true immortals.

Ye Fan's biological son, Ye Yishui, and Donghuang's eldest grandson, Di Yan, both achieved the status of immortals in the mortal world by living a ninth life without taking the elixir of immortality or the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill.

With the help of the Eastern Emperor, Lingbao Tianzun, who has been resurrected and lived for five lifetimes, is still not quite there yet, but has already reached his eighth lifetime.

We're not far from the final step.

In addition, Dao Yi, Zhou Yi, the Six-Eared Macaque, and many other powerful figures all became True Immortals.

Most of the geniuses from the golden age of the past have already successfully advanced.

Even the two human emperors, Taiyin Human Emperor and Taiyang Holy Emperor, who had been cultivating in the celestial realm, as well as the Qilin Ancient Emperor, Blood Phoenix Ancient Emperor, and Golden Ancient Emperor, who had already repaired their Dao Fruits and accumulated millions of years of experience, had all broken through and attained immortality, becoming powerful immortals.

"Boom!"

On this day, above the Boundary Sea.

An aura of annihilation permeated the air, and a dark sea of ​​lightning shrouded the sky.

A great calamity raged, with endless lightning bolts, like a vast ocean, and thunderous tides, like a sea, covering the sky and crashing down violently.

"Crackling... Crackling..." The most domineering and terrifying tribulation light since the beginning of time continuously struck down.

This is a true Immortal King Tribulation, terrifying to the extreme, even those top-tier Immortal Kings would be terrified.

A majestic figure danced with the Mother Qi Cauldron of All Things in the endless sea of ​​thunder, together fighting against the terrifying Celestial King Tribulation.

Ultimately, the great calamity lasted a very long time.

Ye Fan's physical body and primordial spirit underwent an unprecedented transformation.

Ye Fan, who had already reached the pinnacle of immortality for over two hundred thousand years, had spent countless years honing and refining himself, finally achieving ultimate sublimation and truly entering the realm of the Immortal King.

A vast and powerful pressure swept across the land, spreading the aura of the Great Dao.
